While it is a great idea to supress the multiple rendering of the same steps,
I'm not sure there is really any added value to displaying the "x4" on the
last step.
I find that I always take a pass through the final rendered instruction
images, in my image editor, and add my own step "1, 2, 3" numbers on each.
It is no trouble to add the "x4" then.
However, if you do decide to implement it, will the "x4" always be located a
fixed distance from the lower right-hand edge, or will it be user
configurable (NW,NE,SE,SW style)?
